This wave of XRP data is quite interesting.

Looking at the position distribution on MEXC and LBank, the short positions on both platforms have surged above 60%—MEXC is at 61.8%, and LBank is even more extreme at 66.7%. With such an extreme counterparty structure, either the shorts are right and the market continues to fall, or it's fuel being prepared for the bulls.

But here's the issue: In the past hour, $137,800 in shorts have been liquidated, while only $6,000 in longs have been liquidated. That's a 22x liquidation gap, indicating a stampede has already begun. The price is now stuck at the $2.10 level, which is both a technical resistance and an emotional trigger point.

Here's my take:

If the price can hold above 2.102, it's highly likely that a larger-scale short squeeze will be triggered. In the short term, the target could be 2.15 to 2.18, and if the trend goes smoothly, 2.20-2.25 isn't out of the question. For a more conservative approach, you can set orders around 2.05 and wait for a pullback.

But don't forget about risk control. 2.070 is a key support level—if it breaks, it means the logic is wrong, and you should exit. Position management always comes first—don't gamble with your living expenses.

Extreme position structures often signal extreme market moves. The data is clear, and the market is moving; now it's up to the price to decide. The market doesn't always follow the script, but when the signals are clear enough, it's at least worth paying attention.

Opportunities like this don't come often, but that doesn't mean you have to take every one. Think carefully about your risk tolerance before deciding whether to participate.
